I saw my friend's new VW Passat and the Gauge lights just fascinated me. It's kinda Neon Blue. I'm getting an Aegean Blue TL-S tomorrow (hopefully, its 3 days late) and I think those blue gauge lights will look perfect with the silver gauges on black interior and my exterior color.

Does anybody know if changing gauge lights is a big hassle? Let me know if this can be done and how?

I've seen the VW blue and it's cool. The thing is, most often, the color of the gauges are not dictated by the color of the bulb. The plastic housing that the bulb fits into usually contains the coloring. I had a Pontiac that had the red gauges and the bulbs were white. That's not to say that colored bulbs wouldn't work on the TL.

If you ever want to see a wild setup, look at the gauges on a 97 thru current Continental. They have the same flourecent type setup as the Lexus. The weird thing is that the numbers seems to float on the indicator needles. Look up under the instrument pod and you'll see the ligted gauge markings up there in reverse. They are projected down onto the area that you see. The only thing that's really on the dash are the lighted needles. It's a cool setup. Sorry for rambling.
